Buttery Jam and Nutella Tarts for Sweet Punch

It was so much fun making them. Took me hardly 5 minutes to put them together, another 20 min. for baking them and then the last difficult 30 min. of waiting for it to cool down for us to eat them. Results, we loved them. They were very buttery and the tart themselves were crumbly.

Sift the flour and mix butter to it slowly. You will have a smooth dough in less than a min.

Divide them in equal sized 5 balls.

Prepare your mini tart pan or muffin pan with liner (as I did not have a tart pan).

Flatten each ball you made earlier a little and put then in muffin/tart pan to take the shape of the pan.

Fill some tarts with jam till they are about 3/4 full.

The tarts that you want to fill Nutella with, bake them without any filling.

Put your tarts/muffins in the oven and bake for about 20 min.

Let them cool completely before you take them out.

Now, fill the tarts that are empty with Nutella. You can let it set and then fill it again with some chocolate ganache per your liking.

ServingI am guessing you will grab them right out of oven, I mean after they cool down. We would have loved them with ice-cream or whipping cream, but we finished them even before we could get to that stage... lol
